Yeah...I'm old school.
More details please... Are you saying the electric starter won't turn the engine? If you can roll the engine by hand, why didn't you kick it over? From the limited info, it sounds like the solenoid is either stuck. Maybe not enough charge on the battery to turn it over. You need to give more info. It could be as easy as you blew a fuse while trying to start, or more complicated if we get more info...
the bike only has a kicker. when i am kicking it to start it, it seems like the motor is locked up. when i use my hand and push the kicker down you can feel the motor turn over. i also opened the the oil dipstick hole and watched the parts turn when i pushed the kicker with my hand
